Pupdate It’s been pretty mild for the season, but as we passed the middle of the month it was time for the boys to start wearing their coats out on walks. I’ve bought a couple of extra latch clips to poke through the hole in their coats from their harnesses, otherwise it’s a right faff […]

Pupdate It’s starting to get muddy out there, and I guess it won’t be long before they need coats on because of the cold. Dart on Docker on Arm Most of the stuff we build at The @ Company is written in Dart, and we want to enable people to run it on the platform […]

September 2021
Pupdate There was a local sausage dog meetup, which was a lot of fun for the people and the dogs: GraphQL I had to spend a bit of time learning GraphQL, as it’s used by the latest GitHub APIs, and there’s no other way to access the data behind the Projects (beta) boards. There’s a […]

August 2021
Pupdate Max had his first birthday, and Milo is now able to join him on walks after being vaccinated. They also go down to sleep at night in their pen downstairs, which is a step in the right direction. Though there’s been some amazing escapology from Max, and we’re still working on mornings. Trainers After […]

July 2021
Pupdate The big news this month is the arrival of Milo. So we now have double the fun. Holiday The other big news was that we went on holiday for a week in the Lake District. The Lakes were for a while a regular family destination, and then for a variety of reasons we stopped […]

June 2021
Pupdate My Apple Fitness challenge for June was to walk/run 225.5km, which resulted in some bonus walks for Max, despite the mostly awful weather. Back to London I went into London for the first time in 15 months. It was for an emergency dentist visit (which turned out OK), but it’s a trip I’d rather […]

Pupdate Cold and dry April gave way to wet and windy May, but at least the bluebells were out and beautiful for scamping around: Podcast We’ve had some great guests on the show during May, and some fantastic episodes coming up. We also added a discussions feature to the web site, and Olivier Jacques came […]

Pupdate As the weather has improved it’s been great to get out and about more with Max. We also had some fun with his mother Nellie coming to visit. Coding The new job means I’m back to writing code a lot more. One of my first adventures was into using the ZeroSSL API to automate […]

March 2021
Pupdate Max is 7 months old now, and continues to be a source of endless entertainment and cuteness. Having half his people back at school has disrupted our Lockdown III routines, but he has a reason to get extra excited when folk come home. Vaccination I got my first shot of the AstraZeneca vaccine. The […]

February 2021
Pupdate This was the month that he became a dog that likes to go for walks, which is great. He was pretty reluctant for the last few months – scared of traffic and meeting other people (and other dogs), and not keen on the cold wet weather. I’m glad we persevered, as he now seems […]
